VizAeras
IoT monitoring platform for healthy indoor environments. VizAeras aims to provide transparency and access to the critical factors that affect indoor environmental quality (IEQ) conditions, creating healthier indoor spaces in a post COVID19 world. VizAeras was founded in early 2020 and is headquartered in Costa Mesa, California, USA.
Mission
To Make Indoor Environments Healthier, Safer, and More Accessible for the Masses.
Vision
Join our movement to map and track “The Great Indoors.” We are bringing awareness to indoor pollution and providing technology to easily monitor, access, share, and compare healthy building metrics - protecting the most valuable assets inside the building - its occupants.
How Will We Achieve This?
VizAeras will reliably monitor, track, and provide access to the critical IEQ factors that affect our personal health and well-being - accessible from any mobile device, free to the masses, in real-time.
Background
Indoor air pollution poses a serious health risk to populations worldwide. Most Americans, for example, spend approximately 90% of their time indoors at work, home, or school – where indoor pollutants are often 2 to 5 times higher than typical outdoor concentrations.
The U.S. EPA ranks indoor pollution as a top-five environmental risk to public health and estimates that poor indoor air quality affects 33% to 50% of commercial buildings in the U.S. and is responsible for over 10 million lost workdays per year. Globally, approximately 3.8 million people die every year as a result of indoor air pollution.
Between 2019 and 2020, COVID-19 has confirmed the urgent need to monitor and track indoor environmental quality (IEQ) conditions and provide transparency and access to the critical factors that affect healthy building metrics for the most valuable asset inside the building, its occupants.
While many households today may be monitoring and tracking outside threats with security cameras and other devices, aside from fire alarms, the majority are not currently monitoring the threats that live inside their homes. According to a May 2020 Cohesion survey, commercial office building tenants and employees want to feel confident that their buildings are safe and clean, with building cleanliness and Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) decidedly the most important factors.
Carbon dioxide monitoring is also becoming an imperative part of COVID-19 preparedness and planning. In California, for example, Governor Newsom signed California Assembly Bill AB 841 into law in September 2020, mandating indoor air quality monitoring to reduce COVID-19 transmission and infection risk. The bill requires classrooms to monitor C02 and provide an alert when the carbon dioxide levels in the classroom have exceeded 1,100 ppm. When people exhale inside a room, carbon dioxide aerosols containing pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) from infected individuals can be used as a vehicle to increase virus concentrations in the indoor air, as shown by the University of Colorado and Harvard School of Public Health. Is it important we monitor indoor CO2 levels inside our homes, offices, and classrooms, (targeting concentrations below 1,100 PPM) and provide access to this information so that high concentrations can be addressed or remedied with proper ventilation and airflow.
Currently, no other IAQ or IEQ device on the market allows for simple remote monitoring and quick-scan access for any building, with simple share and compare data features to easily monitor and track indoor pollution exposure at frequent or favorite locations. Indor provides the tools necessary to easily detect dangerous pollutants and take action to remedy them before occupants fall ill and become less productive. There has never been a greater need for the ability to easily monitor, access, share, compare, and promote healthy building metrics for any building from any device, in real-time.
